Thread: Converting FLAC to WAV

Can anyone put me in the right direction how to do this please?

Remember, I'm useless at things like this so it would be very much appreciated if you put it in the most simplest of terms

Good advice there Dodders

Seriously though Curly, Sound Forge is what you want. You can convert pretty much any sound format to any other, including flac. I can hook you up with a good working copy

you need to search the net for a programme,i use mp3 audio converter.
All you do is drag your files into the programme then switch the tag that says mp3 to wav

Was gonna suggest that as well Rog but didn't coz:

1) the copy i got was a bugger to set up - not just key cracks n stuff but fooking around with dll files etc - without taking the piss i wasn't sure Curls would fancy it

but more importantly....

2) coz my answer was funnier

All that's gone over my head soooooooooooooo can I just send the file to someone and they convert it for me please?

There's a Jacob's cream cracker in it for you

WHO'S THE FOOKING DADDY!!

Just call me Mr Audio Converter (does a little dance)

I had to convert a load of flacs to wavs last week, and didnt know how.
Thanks to patch (who pointed me in the right direction) I discovered winamp can convert them.
You can batch convert a load of files really quickly with winamp, I did about 60 files in 5 mins, very impressed.

my recommendation would have to be dbpoweramp dBpoweramp Music Converter - Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Download.com

or another, just as good app is flac frontend FLAC frontend Software Informer: Latest version download, news and info about this Speek program. The most popular graphical user interface for all your FLAC audio conversions.

I did it in Audacity, not sure if that's the right way to go but it's worked

Thanks for the help chaps

FLAC frontend as oothe said, just dont forget to run as administrator

FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) is a lossless audio format. FLAC files are compressed in sizes without any loss of quality. However, FLAC files cannot be played on Windows Media Player, iTunes or QuickTime. FLAC format is not an ideal format for storing. Compared with FLAC, Waveform Audio File Format, with filename extension WAV, is uncompressed lossless audio format which provides pretty high quality sound as well as can be played on more portable devices. WAV format is an excellent format for storing files and playing on the go when you do not have space restrictions.


Therefore, converting FALC to WAV will be a better solution if you want to play your FLAC files on Windows Media Player, iTunes, QuickTime and much more portable devices and store them without any quality lossless.
